Shewolf IPA, Half Acre/FFF collaboration, Wed. Aug 15th

Love FFF and Half Acre, too bad I'm not closer to either!

ISO: Shewolf! lol

 

Dear lord... that label art... I think this will be distributed by half acre, so none fore me ;'(

I like this one better.

 

$10.00 + tax on the bomber & 17.00 + tax (which puts it closer to 19.00) for the growler. Funny how much most will pay just to try a beer.

 

If $10 per bomber is too much for you, feel free to pass, but in Chicago, that's a very reasonable price.

 

Any lines at HA?

 

$10 a bomber is a reasonable price anywhere. Must not drink 3 Floyds because they're usually $11-13.

 

Yummy yummy yummy in my tummy ummy ummy. Gimme gimme gimme gimme more.

 

No lines at HA. No more growler fills, but bottles still available. Guy working the checkout thought they'd sell out tomorrow, tonight if they have a big rush tonight.

 

Found out via Twitter that growler fills were no longer an option as of about 3pm today. Stopped in around 5:15pm or so and grabbed 2 bombers (limit is 4 per). I'd guess there were roughly 150-200 in the cooler when I grabbed mine. Just finishing one of the two bombers right now. Well worth the $9.99+tax IMO. Awesome staff, to boot.

 

I took an extended lunch at work today and picked some up as well. This is a really good beer!

 

I had a couple of these a couple years ago and didn't care for it. Thought there was better things at HA and FFF (bring back popskull!). Anyone had the new versus previous?

 

I'm waiting until Sat. to drink one (or 2) of mine but did a taste while picking up 3 bottles yesterday. It started out with Dreadnaught/Arctic Panzer similarities and a sticky resinous finish.

 

Grabbed one on the way home yesterday and had it head-to-head w/FW Union Jack. While the Shewolf is a nice and decent IPA, it was certainly not twice+ as good as the 12oz'er from FW.
